k guys, just put in a jvc headunit i had in my other car, matched up every wire color correctly.. but its not being very coroportive. it will accept CD's and say LOAD, but then will turn off, if i hit the Display button it will show 1:00 but then if i hit the CD/FM/AM any of those nothing lights up no nothing. any ideas?

 

dont have 50 bux to spend on a cdplayer installation, ifyou can just guys can give me some ideas i wont have to spend un needed money....

anyone have any sujestions on the prob.. besides payin somone to do somethin i can do with some help?

 

When you say matched up every wire color, do you mean from the deck harness to the wiring harness adapter you bought? Or is the harness in the car cut?

 

the cd player has a adapter that can plug into the stock plug, the previous owner of the car had cut the stock harness and does not have the male plug off the stock harness, so i took the male from my other crx and put it in the HF that im puting the radio into. thats why im confused. cuz i matched up every color to the male plug from the oem harness and that plug goes right into the female for the cd player.

 

Does it turn on and off with the key? It sounds like it's not getting switched power (red wire on the deck). Check your fuses and see what's up...

 

If it always shows 1:00 on the clock when you hit display you do not have constant power, yellow on HU, white/blue or white/yellow in oem radio harness, normally fused in under hood fuse box, probably a 7.5A fuse.
